Actions Speak Louder
1 Peter 2:15-16 (TPT) The Passion Translation
. 15 For it is God’s will for you to silence the ignorance of foolish
people[a] by doing what is right. 16 As God’s loving servants,
you should live in complete freedom, but never use your freedom as a cover-up
for evil.
1 Peter 2:15-16 (NIV) New
International Version
15 For it is God’s
will that by doing good you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish
people. 16 Live as free
people, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as
God’s slaves.
1 Peter 2:15-16 (ICB) International
Children’s Bible
15 So when you do
good, you stop foolish people from saying stupid things about you. This is what
God wants. 16 Live as free men. But do not use your
freedom as an excuse to do evil. Live as servants of God.
1 Peter 2:15-16 (MSG) The Message
13-17 Make the Master
proud of you by being good citizens. Respect the authorities, whatever their
level; they are God’s emissaries for keeping order. It is God’s will that by
doing good, you might cure the ignorance of the fools who think you’re a danger
to society. Exercise your freedom by serving God, not by breaking the rules.
Treat everyone you meet with dignity. Love your spiritual family. Revere God.
Respect the government.

Lord you never stop amazing me with affirmations and messages as to what
direction I should be; or we should be in general. Far from perfect but so blessed to know I
have been given another day up when so many will never breathe again. Am I where I should be? I have to trust in you and what and where
this is how it is supposed to be.
So many moments where all I do is try to catch my breath even when just curled up like a child just waiting alone and
sometimes more afraid than I should be. https://youtu.be/fVBA-EZXIWY

I just know there is purpose and meaning behind every single thing that is
or is not.
For all those moments Father when all those empty promises are made yet in
the end it is all just noise for selfish needs or ambitions. Not really caring what happens to that
other person. https://youtu.be/acE1pKDE7bQ
”Empty Promises @KINGFISH
How many times we run in the wrong
direction and this world just looks past or uses their worldly judgement.
I have been blessed to know allot of little things over this journey. Never will I take for granted what I do not
understand.
Does anyone really hear the silent cry or needs of the least of these? . https://youtu.be/WmcVWJ7Dnyw ”Does Anybody Hear Her? @Casting Crowns Children never get to choose until they are
grown if they make it; if they are not to damaged from the adults that lead the

All these thoughts just flow so naturally
Jesus, as you allow this mind maze to continue to function somehow, someway.
Life is what we make it as we so often misunderstand what the freedoms of
life and will we are blessed with can and will lead to.
Throughout my childhood and youth
for most of my life always feeling so empty, yet always learning just what it
felt like to have one more person take a piece of what you did not know you had. https://youtu.be/p10-aavJk_w
”Empty” @Darren Taylor
Never really learning what life
was until finding you Jesus. The
day you come up out of that water is as significant as the day you have that first
argument or screaming session, screaming what do you want from me God? https://youtu.be/jFg_8u87zT0 ”You Found Me” @The Fray
I can assure you if you are really serious; Christ will lead you and he
wants you to know who you really are; that you are created for so much more than
walking around blindly lost and believing everything in the world is all that
there is .
How long you get to travel depends on what you do in life and the good Lord
himself. Just always know what ever or
wherever. This is world is not our
final destination. Sure, our vessels
may finally go on when our souls will live on.
I am going home or doing my very best
no matter how imperfect I am and always will be, growing forward to
destination home! Free at last in
heaven; yet doing my best just to reflect hope, love, and the grace only he
allows. https://youtu.be/YIb4NC5ikYo
”Home” @Chris Tomlin
Every living thing Father, you are jealous for that perfect irreplaceable
peace and joy only you give. Jealous for
every soul not acknowledging you, living for you. The day we finally realize
who you really are Jesus, and what are true worth in you is and letting go of
that in the world even if it hurts. https://youtu.be/GzfPHnoT0-0
”How He Loves” @David Crowder Band
There is no amount of anything the world and all in it that can be more truth
than that of what Christ alone is and forever will be. Jesus blood washed this land in the
beginning and all who call upon His name.
He is the cornerstone of the solid foundation far beyond anything the eyes
can see, or the hands may touch. https://youtu.be/izrk-erhDdk ”Cornerstone” @Hillsong Worship
There truly is no way I can ever write, say, or do to prove to the
blessings of excepting Him first and always.
I can tell you pick up your moral compass, know who you are, love who
you are as you are and not keep trying to buy, impress or change for what
others say they want, believe or know.
I can share all the broken pieces of me over time and with facts, truth,
scars walk you through my life experiences and where God alone keeps me alive
blessed and in hope of all that is yet to come. But family, friend, or any connection you
all have to choose and walk that walk yourself.
Yes, getting into a good bible-based church where your no agenda friends
who love you for you and not anything you can donate, do or be. Matters.
And everyone changes over time.
We get twisted in the secular, legalistic world that we have. However, God will never change.
He was then, He is now, and He will forever be!
No matter what you have done, no matter what you are going through. No matter how hungry you are. No matter what anyone around you is or is not
doing to, for or with you.
God will never leave you when you meet him through his son Jesus
Christ. He will be with you as long as
we let him.
My life far from perfect and absolutely not pain free. But so very blessed each day I am allowed to
get back up.
Knowing where I could be, knowing he is not done yet with any of us.
Seal your fate friends. Know there
is nothing you can do that Christ will not wash clean. Yes, we all need to do our time and change
our ways. We cannot play in Satan’s
sandbox or just think if we stop talking about what was not supposed to be it
will fix anything.
Everything takes work and effort with abundant faith and hope in all that
is good, all that is true, all that is pure.
All that is Christ Jesus. Do
yourself a huge lasting favor. Walk
into the light. https://youtu.be/-WbI_CgT1Mk ”In The Light” @DC Talk

Moral Thoughtfulness,
Life through Christ
Colossians 1:9 (TPT) The Passion Translation
9 Since we first heard about you, we’ve kept you always in our
prayers that you would receive the perfect knowledge of God’s pleasure[a] over your
lives, making you reservoirs of every kind of wisdom and spiritual
understanding.
Colossians 1:9 (NIV) New
International Version
9 For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not
stopped praying for you. We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge
of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the
Spirit gives,[a]
Colossians 1:9 (ICB) International
Children’s Bible
9 Since the day we heard this about you, we have continued
praying for you. We ask God that you will know fully what God wants. We pray
that you will also have great wisdom and understanding in spiritual things.
Colossians 1:9 (MSG) The Message
9-12 Be assured that from the first day we heard of you, we
haven’t stopped praying for you, asking God to give you wise minds and spirits
attuned to his will, and so acquire a thorough understanding of the ways in
which God works. We pray that you’ll live well for the Master, making him proud
of you as you work hard in his orchard. As you learn more and more how God
works, you will learn how to do your work. We pray that you’ll have the strength to stick it
out over the long haul—not the grim strength of gritting your teeth but the
glory-strength God gives. It is strength that endures the unendurable and
spills over into joy, thanking the Father who makes us strong enough to take
part in everything bright and beautiful that he has for us.

Thank you, Lord, for the blessings
of life through all the storms, wrong turns, or lost destinations we end up on.
Thank you for all those beautiful
souls and gifts that come in life. Thank
you for all those moments when we think nothing will ever be the same, nothing
will ever be right. All those moments we
are laughing so hard we are crying or crying so hard we cannot breathe.
Thank you, Jesus!
So just as the weather people think the can actually predict what the weather
may turn out. As we learn with the hurricane tracking plots. Just as the storm ETA came to prove it was
going not go near Florida then later to keep everyone up on the West Coast last
night as it passed through.
Thank you again Jesus for the minimal damage that did take place was not as
it could be. Be with all the families
who suffered loss in this season of storms within 2020. The elements are fighting us hard and so
many are giving and giving up. Be with
all who call out to you Lord. Hear the
prayers of your faithful, for all who need and want you.

Verse of the Day (Biblegateway.com) Meditation Opportunities
Do not love the
world so much you forget our maker
1 John
2:15-16 (MSG) The Message Bible
15-17 Don’t love the world’s ways. Don’t love the world’s goods.
Love of the world squeezes out love for the Father. Practically everything that
goes on in the world—wanting your own way, wanting everything for yourself,
wanting to appear important—has nothing to do with the Father. It just isolates
you from him. The world and all its wanting, wanting, wanting is on the way
out—but whoever does what God wants is set for eternity.
1 John
2:15-16 (TPT) The Passion Translation
A Warning Not To Love The World
15 Don’t set the
affections of your heart on this world[a] or in loving the things of the
world. The love of the Father and the love of the world are incompatible.[b] 16 For all that the world can offer us—the
gratification of our flesh, the allurement of the things of the world, and the
obsession with status and importance[c]—none of these things come from the
Father but from the world.
1 John
2:15-16 (NIV) New International Version
On Not Loving the World
15 Do not love the world or anything in the world. If
anyone loves the world, love for the Father[a] is not in them. 16 For everything in the world—the lust of the
flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the
Father but from the world.
1 John
2:15-16 (ICB) International Children’s Bible
15 Do not love the
world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the
Father is not in him. 16 These
are the evil things in the world: wanting things to please our sinful selves,
wanting the sinful things we see, being too proud of the things we have. But
none of those things comes from the Father. All of them come from the world.

How often the choices which we all
own we are elated with excitement or drowning in sorrow or regret. https://youtu.be/84kbsLM2z-o “He is Right Here” @Kaden Slay
Maybe it is not so bad not knowing what or when; at least that way no one has
time to panic. Waiting on the moon to
set or the sun to rise. Or people to
just show up is like watching the water waiting to boil.
Why are we wasting time? Wasted
time has been far too often and much on somethings. https://youtu.be/RYHKWZk7HhM “Nothing Is Wasted” @Elevation Worship
Why can we not be friends and feed the world with peace and harmony? Everyone has the ability to be what they
need to just to get by or get out of something.
But what we do is not who we really are.
We all do things that sometimes break others or even our own souls. We all have been blessed with talents and knowledge. What we do with it matters. What we do for others matters. What we think matters in the end with whatever
we have become to believe deep in this world matters. Character matters as we have seen over the
past several years. What we choose to
do, say, or reflect matters!
Someone is always watching and most times it is a child looking up to you. So you are leading by example all the way.
Being wealthy is a blessing, but it does not matter except where it comes
in handy to pay your bills and feed your family. Being a collector well that does not
necessarily mean a thing. We all know
sometimes being the richest man or woman around is a very lonely painful
life.
Where we have to numb ourselves or bury ourselves becoming the least of
these themselves for the world and never really living life for who they are
truly meant to be.
Not always, but just knowing what you have or do is who you really are, and
your wealth is what is on the inside, not what you throw in a corner collecting
spider webs and dust. Many will get
that; many more will never. https://youtu.be/9UvFOhAPwGU “Richest Man Alive” @Darren Taylor
Some of the most beautiful souls who
find life in everything have little to nothing.
They live on dirt floors with tin roofs and are blessed deep within just
by giving back even when they have nothing.
What you have running through your soul, your heart and through your veins. Is what reflects your worth.
Have you met Jesus where you are;
have you invited him to come live with you in spirit every day you have left to
breath?
Have you given him thanks even through the storms? Have you given him thanks for any blessings
he has given you each day you are allowed up?
Have you even acknowledged how blessed you are with what you have right
where you stand? Or are you caught up
in complaining, and hating the world and anyone near you because things just do
not go the way you think they should be?
It is so easy to get caught up and twisted with the haves and have
nots. So easy to believe in what is not
really there. So easy to want and want and want. To expect, to even achieve and it never be
enough. At what point does it feed
your soul and stop taking from it?
I could always believe you think of me
and the day I see you face to face you do not even know me. Or in real life you leave nothing waiting or
dependent on what others can do for you Me I just can’t;
https://youtu.be/A672nPEHOfc “I Can’t” @Caitlyn Smith ft. Old Dominion
I cannot put all I am into anything
or anyone I cannot see but Jesus Christ.
I cannot be what others think I should or wants to me to be. I
cannot ever encourage anyone that is living with all they are and all they do
because that is how any living soul on this earth wants them to be and that
matters because that is what keeps them in their lives.
We all have been created by the hands of God and he breathed air into the dust
and their humanity started. For so
much more than to be at the mercy of what others say you must be or do for them
to love and care for you.
Crazy I know this mind maze with so many twists and turns like my favorite
roller coaster ride. Forever sitting
next to that one, hands up and feeling the rush as laughter pounds out through
the airwaves of the silent souls never to be seen or understood.
In truth, there is much love for so
many but only those deep in this soul who truly be felt and known even if they
are never seen. With that journey
through what flows through these veins.
Well its just who I am.
Forever blessed that God never gave up no me. Picked
up and given the brush to paint over the chips and cracks of all the broken
pieces that once were shattered cutting deep into anyone that came close
enough. All the while I was already dead
and just also numbing and trying fill voids that had no beginning or no end.
I will forever be blessed with out without anything of this world! Live has always been so much better, with so
much peace, so much more love in Christ, with Christ. Yes, knowing this morning, noon, and night. Well I
am beyond blessed!
Thank you, Lord, for allowing me up another day even with the storms
coming. Thank you for allowing me to just
breathe. For all the great people
places and things in my life and all the hardships, lessons, and messages.
It is not over until you take us home and then it is only the beginning for
eternity.
Thank you for allowing me to meet another brother in Christ and hear who he
is and his path you have blessed.
Blessings to him and his family, and His journey. Through music, authoring and his up and
coming movie sharing his story and love where he goes. Kudos Darren Taylor! It is a small world and God’s kingdom has
no boundaries when we share the message of hope and light to the eternal
promise land.
I so pray we all find our way to coming home to you Lord! ;
https://youtu.be/iC7wWFQUUqU “Coming Home” @Keith Urban ft. Julia Michaels
It is a beautiful thing how God uses us when we let him. I have been deeply forever blessed with a
love so deep I cannot explain it except at times I crave to feel from the
outside in what God only fills me up with.
My eternal sweet soul king; love beyond space and time and just my forever
dream. Even when I have to wake up into
the world’s reality. Life is what it
is until it is not. Make every breath
count knowing we are not alone. Call

God Is Everywhere, In and With Everything, Including
ALL Humanity
Job 37:5-6(GNT) Good News Translation
5 At God's command
amazing things happen,
wonderful things that we can't
understand.
6 He commands snow to fall on the earth,
and sends torrents of drenching rain.
Job 37:5-6 (NIV) New International
Version
5 God’s voice
thunders in marvelous ways;
he does great things beyond our
understanding.
6 He says to the snow, ‘Fall on the
earth,’
and to the rain shower, ‘Be a mighty
downpour.’
Job 37:5-6 (ICB) International
Children’s Bible
5 God’s voice
thunders in wonderful ways.
He does great things we cannot
understand.
6 God says to the snow, ‘Fall on the
earth.’
And he says to the rain shower, ‘Be a
heavy rain.
Job 37:5-6 (MSG) The Message Bible
37 1-13 “Whenever this
happens, my heart stops—
I’m stunned, I can’t catch my breath.
Listen to it! Listen to his thunder,
the rolling, rumbling thunder of his
voice.
He lets loose his lightnings from horizon to horizon,
lighting up the earth from pole to
pole.
In their wake, the thunder echoes his voice,
powerful and majestic.
He lets out all the stops, he holds nothing back.
No one can mistake that voice—
His word thundering so wondrously,
his mighty acts staggering our
understanding.
He orders the snow, ‘Blanket the earth!’
and the rain, ‘Soak the whole
countryside!’
No one can escape the weather—it’s there.
And no one can escape from God.
Wild animals take shelter,
crawling into their dens,
When blizzards roar out of the north
and freezing rain crusts the land.
It’s God’s breath that forms the ice,
it’s God’s breath that turns lakes and
rivers solid.
And yes, it’s God who fills clouds with rainwater
and hurls lightning from them every
which way.
He puts them through their paces—first this way, then that—
commands them to do what he says all
over the world.
Whether for discipline or grace or extravagant love,
he makes sure they make their mark.

If you’ll willingly obey,
you’ll feast like kings.
But if you’re willful and stubborn,
you’ll die like dogs.”

good, bad, or indifferent we really are to this world.
Or we get to choose all that is temporary that will always have
consequences and sometimes take the very things we thought were the most important
while walking this earth.
We can argue it out with you. But
you God sent your son Jesus and His freedom of will and choice died on a cross
that poured out His blood to was us clean.
No matter how dirty, broken or lost we may be. Covering over us like that fresh fallen
winter snow. Quiet, intense yet so full
of beauty and passion.
It is only through the relationships with Christ that will save our
souls.
We all fall from grace, yet with you and the abundant mercy and grace allow
us to get back up.
Your calls in the darkest moments, or most silent long nights we are laying
wide awake. Spinning, hurting, so
confused, so angry at times. You Come
Jesus.
May we all call upon you alone to fly high with Gods angel army and land
safely for all the work that is needed.
You alone Jesus, can wake us up. The vipers are upon us; seen and unseen. It is just how the world works as everyone
chases their own form of power.
Attaining it through money, power over others or just thinking they have
won something significant as they take from others.
Wake us up Lord!
There is no doubt we have all done and been less than what you every wanted
for or from us.
Jesus there is so much need so many needing your hand that is reaching out
through all your kingdom.
May we all read between the lines of a world full of injustice and so many about
to meet you, so many leaving abruptly.
So much hate and distain.
Brokenness everywhere. Heal Us
Lord. Show your workers how to make the
difference. Heal and soften hearts.
This world is not our permanent home.
Our vessels will be taken, may or souls be written in the book of
eternal love and life with you Father God.
Take it all away Lord. Wash this
land white as snow.

Verse of the Day (Biblegateway.com) Meditation Opportunities
We ALL get to choose! I Choose to worship Jesus Christ
Joshua 24:15 (GNT) Good News Translation
15 If you are not willing to serve him,
decide today whom you will serve, the gods your ancestors worshiped in
Mesopotamia or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are now living. As
for my family and me, we will serve the Lord.”
Joshua 24:15 (NIV) New International
Version
15 But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to
you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods
your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the
Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my
household, we will serve the Lord.”
Joshua 24:15 (ICB) International
Children’s Bible
15 But maybe you don’t want
to serve the Lord. You must choose for yourselves today. You must decide whom
you will serve. You may serve the gods that your people worshiped when they
lived on the other side of the Euphrates River. Or you may serve the gods of
the Amorites who lived in this land. As for me and my family, we will serve the
Lord
Joshua 24:15 (MSG) The Message Bible
15 “If you decide that it’s
a bad thing to worship God, then choose a god you’d rather serve—and do it today.
Choose one of the gods your ancestors worshiped from the country beyond The
River, or one of the gods of the Amorites, on whose land you’re now living. As
for me and my family, we’ll worship God.

Inspirational Thoughts
@Alison Aars @PeacefulMindPeacefulLife
Surround yourself with
people who talk about visions and ideas, not other people.
Daily
Journal/Thoughts/ Prayers (my perspectives and/or feelings):
Lord just like that hurricane spaghetti plot; no one knows where or when.
We make messes of our lives by just jumping in the fires and doing whatever
we feel. Later to pay sometimes prices
that cost everything we think is worthwhile having or the only security we may
have known. Humanity has done this
before the beginning of my time and will do so far after.
We all get to choose. We all get to
either jump in the fire and heal after or keep burning through out our lives;
or we get to heal and think and choose wisely before taking that leap.
The blessings you gave all of us God, including your son Jesus Christ. We all get to choose, and we all get to own
the consequences of every choice we make.
Or even depending where we are in life those around us either get the
blessings or the damage our choices make.
It is never too late to make things right where we chose wrong. Until the day the good Lord takes our
faculties and/or stops allowing the very air in our lungs to have a life.
Is it really in our nature to know what it is really like; we look at
others judging or even turning our backs on humanity itself?
It is no big secret how we in
humanity use up and mistreat what is no longer of use for our own personal
gains. So many playing games against the
hands that feed them. So many causing
the brokenness of this world leaving families and babies on the streets.
So many still blessed enough to have it going on walk past or even mistreat
those down on their luck.
Sure, maybe it is all they ever knew to hustle on the corner but who are we
to judge.
Sure, they may be dirty and broken
and do not fit into our plans. When you
really feel what it is like to lose then you too may way up understanding what
your worth God created humanity for or even in you.
One day we all will understand.
Someday we all get to choose. But
never let your choices or misfortune be taken out on others around you. Dive in, sort through and come back out on
top.
Sure, it sounds easier than done.
Over time we grow weary and sometimes just do not have anything more in
us to fight for or with. Call upon the
Lord to give you that strength.
It is never over until you lay down and never get back up again. And no one knows when that day is really.
